Online Workshop on Stellar Photometry with LCO (2-4 pm IST, 8 - 9 October 2022) We plan a two-day online workshop on observations with the Las Cumbres Observatory to understand photometry and standardization which can be used to observe variable stars, star clusters , etc. This program is planned for serious amateur and young aspiring professional astronomers. We shall have detailed presentations on magnitude scales, extinction, photometry, the BANZAI pipeline and standarization. There will be hands-on sessions on using TopCat and jupyter notebooks with LCO data.
